(A) PREFACE
I am elated to present Reaccreditation Report of our Uma Mahavidyalaya, Pandharpur to
the National Assessment
and
Accreditation
Council (NAAC)
for
Assessment
and
Reaccreditation.
We have tried to prepare the Reaccreditation Report with profound sincerity and candour.
It is our candid endeavour to present the same in accordance with the guidelines formulated by
the august body i.e. NAAC.
In the rapid changing scenario, the excellence in higher education has become a
watchword. It is inevitable and indispensable. It is indeed, a matter of pride, privilege and laurel
for our college to get reaccredited by the esteemed, august and autonomous body like NAAC.
While highlighting our strength, we have not winked at the lacunae in us. I have not an iota of
doubt that NAAC is an apt podium of veracious accreditation and assessment and will ceaselessly
play its pivotal role of a light house to guide and boost the innumerable educational institutions
like us.
We express our solemn commitment to persevere in materializing the motto of our
institution meaning Work is Worship.
The Internal Quality Assurance Cell and the Management implemented various activities
to address quality reported issues during the last more than five years. Our efforts are to reach
excellence in Higher Education by improvising our innate qualities and adopting innovative
ideas.
By virtue of integrated efforts and positive approach, we are steadily proceeding towards
bringing in the expected total quality management. The same report is a synergic outcome of
relentless and ceaseless efforts taken by all the units of the institution. I express profound
gratefulness to our Venerable President Shri. Sudhakarpant Paricharak and all the Honourable
Members of the Management. I also express my sincere thankfulness to the Coordinator, Prof.
Dr. D. R. Baad, all the members of IQAC, and the teaching and non-teaching staff for their
sincere efforts in materializing this report.
We assure you of our religious & dedicated efforts to come up to the expectations of the
NAAC.

1) Curricular Aspects:Our college offers three years degree course in the faculty of Arts and Commerce. At the
entry year, students can opt for five optional subjects + English compulsory. At the second and
the third year, the option for the subjects goes on narrowing with a view to attain thorough
knowledge in their respective subject. Students are provided with specialization in English,
Marathi, Hindi, History and Geography (in Arts faculty.) The students from Commerce faculty
can opt for either Advanced Accountancy or Industrial Management as special subject.
While giving admission to the students, we have to abide by the directives issued by the
university and the government. With regard to time-table, students enjoy flexibility in choosing
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 8
the optional subjects. The students from Commerce faculty can enjoy and avail of horizontal
mobility and join the Arts faculty. Even the students from the Science faculty, can also seek
admission in the faculty Arts. The students, however, from the Arts faculty can never switch
themselves over to the Commerce faculty and are, thus, deprived of the horizontal mobility.
Though we wish to bring any change in the syllabi and examination techniques, we
cannot materialize the same. As curricula are designed by the university, the college is not at
liberty to introduce and modify any new course. It is, however, our sincere effort to convey the
required changes to the B.O.S of the university. We are fortunate to have Prof. Dr. D. R. Baad
and Prof. Dr. S. S. Upase, our staff members, who have been working on B. O. S. of our Solapur
University. We can, therefore, convey the required changes through them.
2) Teaching, Learning &Evaluation:Students are admitted to various courses in accordance with their academic records and
also by adhering to the rules and guidelines of the government and the university. At the entry
level, merit and reservation quota are the main criteria. Preference at the entry level is given to
those students, who come from our own junior wing after having passed in the H. S. C.
examination. Preference is also given to those students, who have a noteworthy contribution in
the fields of sports and other extra-curricular activities at the state and national level. As per the
Vision, Mission and the Objectives of our Management, abiding by the rules, we take utmost care
not to deprive even the commonest desirous student of admission. In order to accommodate the
exceeding students, we send a proposal of additional division to the university and pursue the
same. Pedagogy being a synchronizing phenomenon, the teachers try to be in rapport with the
students by means of unit tests, home assignments, mid-term examinations, group discussions,
seminars. Alighting at the students' level, every teacher seeks feedback, without any qualms,
from the students and tries to do away with the lacunae in his teaching. Teachers prepare a
month-wise, yearly teaching plan and try to execute it meticulously. In case of the students, who
are sufficiently intellectual ones, the teachers provide extra advanced guidance to help them
attain more knowledge and skills. In order to elevate the educationally disadvantaged students,
extra efforts are taken in the form of extra lectures and special guidance.
It is the sincere endeavour of our teachers to complete their portion as per teaching plan,
giving adequate time for the students to prepare themselves for the final examination. The
teachers make an extensive use of charts, audio-cassettes, diagrams and symbols and try to
enliven the students and also make their teaching more effective and innovative.
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 9
Tests and internal examinations are taken to facilitate the students to know the exact
nature of question papers. Sets of question papers are kept in the library for students' perusal.
Requisite suggestions are given to the concerned. Appointments of teachers are made by
the Management as per the directives of the government and the norms of the university.
Teachers are deputed to attend seminars, workshops, and symposia, conferences to update and
enrich their knowledge in their respective subject. In order to broaden the views of the students
and widen their horizon of knowledge, study tours and excursions are conducted by most of the
departments.
Our NSS department has also a significant role in the sphere of social service. By
conducting the various society-oriented programmers, the NSS department has exemplified a
gesture of social commitment. Under the joint auspices of Rotary Club of Pandharpur, an NGO,
the NSS department successfully carried out the tree plantation near the railway station and
played a significant role in preserving environmental atmosphere.
3.Research, Consultancy &Extension:There is really conducive ambience for the research activities in the college. Motivation is
always given to pursue the research work. Nearly 85% of our staff members are engaged in
research work within a short span of five years. At present, five staff members are Ph. D. holder,

Marathi to help the students understand the same thoroughly well. He has also produced audio
cassettes on some stories and has also recorded an act-wise theme (with some dialogues) in
Marathi of "The Merchant of Venice", a celebrated comedy of William Shakespeare.

Marathi Bhavgeete. It is noteworthy that he performs Marathi programme named Haasya
Pandhari, which is exclusively pariodical programme. He also performs Magic and the Melody
of Mouthorgan programme.
The Department of NSS is very active in in the social services. The Dept. of NSS
organizes a special camp and regular activities. It has undertaken a number of society oriented
programmes such as tree plantation, eradication of superstition, Lek Vachava Abhiyan, Yoga
education etc.
To cater to the needs of the students & to flourish their personality, various
programmes are organized. In addition, the college invites some distinguished personalities for
guiding our students as a part of career guidance. Besides, our cultural department organizes
various competitions, such as debate, elocution, music, mehandi, dance competition. Various
associations from our town organize lectures of prominent persons on the important topics
suitable to the students.
4. Infrastructure and learning Resources:The college has a campus area of 3520 sq. m. and built up area of 2695 sq.m. During the
last more than five years, the college has spent a large amount for constructing various facilities
such as class rooms, renovation of library, gymkhana, computer labs etc. The college gymkhana
has various outdoor and indoor facilities. There is a provision for all the necessary facilities
available for the students and the staff. The college has a specious library of 93.31 sq.mts. A
separate reading-room is available for the students. The college has purchased a large variety of
text-books, journals, periodicals etc.
All Class rooms are made available for the teaching purpose. There is optimum
utilization of the other infrastructure facilities like Library, Computer room, Staff room, Ladies
Room, study Room, Gymkhana, Principal's Cabin, Office etc.
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 11
The college makes sincere and ceaseless efforts to keep the college premises clean and
serene. The building maintenance committee along with all the class IV staff makes all sorts of
efforts to keep the college clean & hygienic. Care has been taken to grow as many trees as
possible around the college. The building maintenance committee pays attention to the
cleanliness of all campus i.e. Sanitation, drinking water, water tank, proper working of electric
supply etc. Moreover, the students play a significant role in keeping the college clean &
conducive for education. With the help of the various Committees like building maintenance
committee, garden committee, water supply committee, the college campus is kept beautiful and
pollution free. The entire college campus i.e. the Class Rooms, Principals Cabin, Office, Staff
Room, Ladies Room, Library, Computer Room, etc. is kept clean by the class IV from the nonteaching staff of our College.
The trees that have enhanced the beauty of the college campus, are preserved
and
nurtured by watering and providing manure. The students of the Department of NSS have also an
important role in keeping the college campus clean. Our students give their wholehearted support
to make the college more & more beautiful, serene, and pollution free.
5. Students Support &Progression:The students have an ample optional in choosing subjects for their specialization. They are at
liberty to choose their special subjects. At the time of admission, the college prospectus provides
the requisite information with the salient features of the institution, courses, timing, duration of
terms, rules and discipline, admission and cancellation procedure, fees and scholarships,
information regarding the library, NSS, sports and various prizes, college examinations etc. The
students can avail of the financial aids, through national, state and college level. The college has a
specific employment cell and placement officer to offer counseling to the students. Moreover, our
each and every staff member tries to offer career guidance by way of counseling. Whenever the
college receives any information about the employment recruitment, the students are immediately
informed about the same through the Employment Cell. Employment related newspapers, weekly
etc. such as Employment News, Nokari Sandarbha are made available for the students. Almost
all teachers have an excellent rapport with the students that enables the students to follow the best
ways of studying and securing good marks for their bright future. It is, however, disheartening
thing to note that very few students are interested in appearing for various competitive
examinations before and after graduation. We often try to persuade the students to indulge in
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 12
non-traditional courses and competitive examinations; but most of the students are from lower
income group or lower middle class. They are, therefore, reluctant to pursue the same.
Our college provides a considerable assistance to the poor class students. Even our staff
members do not lag behind in offering help to the poor class students. In order to keep account of
the progression of the past students, we have formed Alumni Association. It is, indeed, a matter
of great pride and privilege for the college that many past students have been working in many
fields and illuminating with their significant role. The directives, the policies and the criteria of
admissions are given in the college prospectus and put up on the notice board too. No overseas
students have applied, so far, for the admission.
Students are encouraged to participate in various competitions conducted by the university, other
organizations, NSS camps and annual gathering.
6. Governance &leadership:Shri. Pandurang Shikshan Prasarak Mandal, Pandharpur is the name of our
esteemed Management. Our beloved institution has quite effective and efficient coordinating and
monitoring mechanism. The same is the Governing Body that controls administration, approves
the schemes of developments and augmentation of the various activities of the college. The
Governing Body consists of the Honble President, Vice-President, Secretary and the other
members. In addition, Local Managing Committee, standing committee, students' council and
various departmental committees meet very often and plan the working. The management is like
'a light house' that plays a pivotal role in encouraging and bolstering each and every staff member
to flourish and attain academic excellence. By virtue of its magnanimous and humanitarian view,
the management has literally made every staff member feel at home and has in real sense, formed
an emotional bond. The Principal enjoys total liberty in the developmental plan.
The Management looks after the appointments of teaching and non-teaching staff,
promotions to higher positions. The college plans its entire academic, administrative and
development programmes according to the vision and mission of the institute. IQAC of the
college effectively implements all the programmes planned by various committees. The college
permits a culture of participative management through co-ordinations and consultation of the
concerned faculty members. Principal, Office Superintendent, Head Clerk, the Head Peon often
meet to plan for the division of work and supervise their day today work. They are authorized to
check, control, guide and take necessary action for the improvement in daily work. The college
often provides opportunities for all the faculty members to participate in conferences, seminars,
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 13
workshops etc. The Principal often encourages the non-teaching staff to participate in various
workshops. Internal and statutory audit of the college is done by the specially appointed auditor.
7. Innovations and Best Practices:Our college often strives hard to maintain the qualitative improvement through healthy
practices. Every staff member is fully committed to enhance the qualitative teaching with a view
to gain momentum.
In order to impart value-based education, we instil 'a feeling of fraternity' and a sense of
belonging' in the minds of students, lectures by eminent personalities and social workers are
arranged. Students are asked to go through the biographies and the value-based books of the great
saints. The social activities coupled with humanitarian gesture inculcate civic responsibilities
among the students. Seminars, lectures, essay competitions on population explosion, pollution,
water preservation, AIDS awareness, anti-dowry movement, superstition eradication movement
are organized by the college. The functions like 'Teacher Day, Hindi Din, Marathi Din, Makar
sankraman, Geography Day' etc. offer the podium for the students to develop and display their
speech skill. NSS camps, Abhinav wall paper, Snehsudha Niyatkalik, various sports
competitions, study tours are the activities that immensely help the students nurture their creative
faculty. We have many welfare schemes like loan for employees, scholarships, freeships, and aids
for the needy students. Being a local college, we have an excellent rapport with the parents
guardians of our students that immensely helps the students to flourish their personality in all
respects. In addition, our College has developed different innovative mechanisms for quality
assurance in academic & administrative system. This includes computerized office, display
of necessary information for the benefits of students, suggestion box, and magazines. In all
these designing, planning & working out of the action plan IQAC performs vital role.

Being an affiliated college to Solapur University, curriculum is designed by
board of studies. The work load is allotted to teachers as per timetable. At the
commencement of the academic year, we conduct a common meeting. The previous
academic committees discuss various issues related to curriculum. Under the guidance of
the Principal, curricular and co-curricular committees are formed. The annual planning is
made and it is practiced throughout the year.
For effective implementation of the syllabus supportive curricular activities
like Home Assignments, Seminars, group discussion, project works, study tours,
co-curricular and extra-curricular activities and guest lectures are used. The Principal
supervises all the academic and all other activities and gives instructions as per the
requirements.
We are aware of the importance of library, so the institution sanctions maximum
budget to purchase reference books, CDs, Maps, Atlas and etc. We also organize study
tours to give practical knowledge to the student community.
1.1.3 What type of support (procedural and practical) do the teachers receive
(from the University and/or institution) for effectively translating the
curriculum and improving teaching practices?
The university in collaboration with the affiliated colleges conducts workshops

What is the policy of the Institution for creation and enhancement of infrastructure
that facilitate effective teaching and learning?
We have a sufficient building to accommodate all the classes. Though not
colossal, the structures of the building are eye-catching and alluring one. It is situated in
the interior part of the Extension area and is, therefore, away from the common din and
traffic nuisance. The college building has twenty nine rooms, consisting of Principal's
cabin, office, staff room, ladies room, gymkhana, common room, two computer labs, and
library. At present, we do not have our own playground and a separate auditorium. We
have envisaged these two amenities in the on-going augmentation of the building. We
utilize the railway playground for the outdoor games. Though we have no indoor
auditorium, various programmes, including the annual prize distribution functions, are
neatly organized in the central part of the college.

Post-Accerditation Initiatives
The day 2nd October is, indeed, an inspiring and auspicious day from our country's
point of view. It was on the same day that the 'MahanAatma,' a crusader and the champion of
the downtrodden saw the light of the day. 2nd October is celebrated with profound reverence
in the pious memory of the icon and the 'Father of Nation', Venerable Mahatama Gandhi. In
case of the citizen of Pandharpur, the same day has a special significance too. The 2nd
October 1989 heralded the news of the opening of UMA MAHAVIDYALAY at Pandharpur.
Our college is a fond offspring of ' Shri. Pandurang Shikshan Prasarak Mandal
Pandharpur.' A man who set this tiny sapling of the institution is venerable Sudhakar
Paricharak, an ex- MLA of Pandharpur. A doyen in the cooperative field and 'political Saint'
as he is acknowledged by the people, Mr. Paricharak started the college with barely 60
students. Gradually, the same tiny sapling went on blossoming and flourishing from all
directions. True to its insignia of an Eagle symbolising progress and prosperity, the college is
always agog to leap in the direction of progress.
With the two faculties of Arts and Commerce, the academic journey of the college
started with merely 60 students. It is, however, with the help of untiring role of the
Management and the unstinted support of the citizens, the strength of the students has gone
over 1700. Today the college has a total strength of 1006 for degree courses and 737 students
for +2 courses. The college has two faculties: Arts and Commerce. Now our college is 25
years old. In this rapid scenario, everyone hankers after the perfection. We, however sincerely
believe that perfection is a thing aimed at, but not achieved in this difficult world.' In our
short academic journey, we have never been oblivious of the lacunae in us. We have no qualm
admitting that in addition to self-assessment, there ought to be outside agency for apposite
assessment. We do hope NAAC being an apt and august agency; will play a fulcrum role in
the process of Reaccreditation.
The NAAC Peer Team paid a visit to our college in the month of A u g u s t 2 0 0 4 and
accredited our college with B grade. The honourable peer team meticulously observed all the
activities academic, co-curricular, extra-curricular, extension and infrastructural, library,
gymkhana and other facilities.
The honourable peer team candidly lauded some of our best practices and made
some valuable suggestions.
One of the major steps taken as Post-Accreditation initiative is
the establishment of IQAC 15th December, 2004.
The following were some of the recommendations made by the peer team in 2004.
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 173
Recommendations
Steps may be taken to introduce Political Science and Sociology in Arts faculty to
provide more options to the students.
Keeping pace with the increase in the students strength, enhanced sports facilities
may be provided.
Liaison may be made with the District Sports authority to extend training various
sports disciplines to the strengths.
The management may seriously think about introducing Science faculty in the
college to make it a full-fledged institution.
Thrust may be given to introduction of certificate / short term job oriented courses
on self-finance basis.
The Management may also give a thought to starting of diploma and PG courses in
the near future.
The management may take steps to acquire land to provide playground to the
sportspersons and the college.
During the last 10 years we have made relentless efforts to develop the various
aspects of the college.
It is noteworthy that during the C. 1, there wasnt a single staff member having Ph. D.
However, by now there are five staff members having Ph. D., and most of the others
are sincerely pursuing their Research.
Some of the staff members have their contributions in publishing their books and
research papers.
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 174
The subjects like Sociology and Political Science could not be introduced, because
there was no response from the students for these subjects.
There are frequent visits of District Sports Officer to the Dept. of Sports.
The girl students are provided adequate sports facilities. A separate room is made
available for them for the practice.
The Management has started Science faculty at Junior college. The efforts are on to
start Science faculty at Senior College.
Short Term Courses like Library Training Course and MSCIT were introduced after
the Cycle 1.
The Management has started Diploma in Teachers Education (D. T. Ed) and
Bachelor of Education College (B. Ed).
The nearby open space has been acquired by the Management for the playground
There are consistent efforts to start Language Laboratory for the Dept. of English.
Two spacious Computer Labs were installed having all the requisite facilities.
Green lawn was cultivated on 10,000 sq.ft area inside the college with ornamental
bushes.
Canteen
College Library was entirely renovated with computerization and with a number of
books, reference books.
We have adequate infrastructural amenities that enable the students to receive their
education in a conducive atmosphere.
Uma Mahavidyalaya
Page 175
Ours is a local college. We, therefore, have an excellent rapport with the students and
their parents.
Every staff member is committed to enhance the qualitative teaching. Our college is
noteworthy for its discipline and punctuality.
The college building is away from a common din and traffic nuisance. The extensive
use of tree plantation has created a refreshing, serene, hygienic and pollution free
ambiance.
Our Annual Gathering, which is a centre of attraction of our town, offers an ample
opportunity to the budding artists from the students to perform their creative
activities.
Summary:
National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) is an autonomous
august body that bolsters innovation, self-evaluation, reforms and accountability by
carrying out the assessment and accreditation of institution of higher education. By
virtue of the process of accreditation, the educational institutions and their
managements have become of the quality dimension of higher education. It has also
created an awareness to deal with emerging challenges of higher education. The
NAAC's accreditation process has immensely helped the institutions to know their
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The process of self-evaluation plays
a fulcrum role in enhancing collegiality in the campus. We have not an iota of doubt
that the Reaccreditation will undoubtedly help institutions initiate innovative and
modern methods of pedagogy. The NAAC's Reaccreditation process is in conformity
with 'epoch making' period, where 'the excellence' in higher education has become an
inevitable and indispensable watchword.
We have tried to prepare our Re-Accreditation Report with profound sincerity
and candour. It is our candid endeavour to present the same in accordance with the
guidelines formulated by the august body like NAAC. We have an unflinching faith
that getting reaccredited by an autonomous and esteemed body like NAAC would
certainly be a ' bonanza'. 'Survival of the fittest', as Darwin rightly puts in, fixing a cutoff marks percentage has really become an indispensable, considering the fact that the
number of seats available in college are limited. It is aptly said that quality product
and quality service begin with quality thinking. We are, therefore, agog to get
